Am looking to plan a DIY trip into the Dean this summer (mid July/early August). After reading previous posts on this forum about DIY trips to the Dean, I am curious if any other forum members are considering doing a similar trip this summer. If so, I would be keen to discuss the prospect for cost sharing transit to and from the Dean.

I have always put a DIY trip to the Dean near the top of my bucket list. I would consider joining another or small group and would certainly share transit costs and overlapping gear. Shoot me a PM if interested.

I concur that the time for the Dean draw ended March 31. We got our notification from Patty that we got our dates about a week ago. Greyghosts, you could write and ask if there are any dates left from the draw that you could get for 2016, but otherwise your next chance will be the 2017 draw next March.
